The University of Tennessee Pride of the Southland Marching Band performing the legendary Salute to the Hill!!! This is one of my favorite videos that I have posted on KZfaq as it really captures the atmosphere of college football and The Big Orange!! The video and sound really gets better as the band gets closer to the street corner!! The majorettes did an amazing job of performing (as always)!! This video was shot from the bridge above the street and is a fantastic place to watch one of the coolest pre-game rituals in college sports!!

Come on now people. I'm an unabashed Vol fan and loved watching this video; however, I have been fortunate enough to see UT games at UF, Auburn, UGA and Alabama and the atmosphere there is just as electric at you see in this video. There is nothing that will ever compare to the excitement, energy and emotion of an SEC football game. Go Vols!

I ain't even going to lie there was more energy and excitement in this 8 minute and 31 second video than, probably the entire 2 hour and 30 plus minute game... No one, I mean no one!! Does it better than my beloved USC Trojan marching band lol,. Then again...

Good job UT. I once asked for a flat top haircut in Knoxville... but she gave me a "Rocky Top" instead! I didnt ask for the UT special. Altho I am an LSU fan, this is one of the best pregames in college football. I agree with the earlier post in that THIS is part of what makes college football great!

Once several years ago, I had the good fortune to escort one of my granddaughters to an invitation from the music department to attend a game. We were seated in the band section before they "marched" down the hill. As we sat there we could hear the band and crowd up at the other end of the stadium. My granddaughter look around and ask where are the fans? (she expected to see 90+ thousand people) I told her to wait. The band has not started inside yet. I knew from past trips the fans don't really come until after the band finishes and starts to inter the "bowl". Sure enough, by the time the band was on the way to their pregame locations, the seats were starting to fill with the 90+ thousand she was expecting. Go Vols!!

As an Oregon fan, I traveled to Knowxville for this years game. What I saw was a great Oregon team, but I also saw a young Tennessee team with enormous potential. Next year, or maybe in two, the Vols are gonna be back near the top of the SEC again. Thanks for the hospitality, Vol's fans, An believe me, as great as the salute is on KZfaq, it's even better in person. Hope you guys can come to Eugene soon so we can return the favor.

The Tennessee band has always been classy. I remember coming up to Knoxville when Ole Miss would play the Vols, and the Vols would play Forward Rebels during their pregame. Very classy. Although we won in 09, it will be interesting to see how Ole Miss does against the Vols this year.

I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the Oregon fans I met because in SEC country we normally dont like anyone other than fellow UT fans haha. Its cool to hear opposing fans who enjoy our pregame traditions as much as we do. And Ive heard Autzen stadium can get a bit loud as well itd be awesome to watch a game there.
